Pseudo-nitzschia spp. presence-absence and environmental data in Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island, USA and the Northeast U.S. Shelf (NES-LTER transect) from 2018-2023

This dataset includes environmental measurements and presence-absence of Pseudo-nitzschia species, a harmful algal bloom diatom genus, associated with samples from various sites in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, including the Narragansett Bay Long Term Plankton Time Series site, and several stations along the Northeast U.S. Shelf Long Term Ecological Research program transect. These data correspond to an analysis of Pseudo-nitzschia species composition and domoic acid toxin production during winters and summers from 2018-2023 in Narragansett Bay and the Northeast U.S. Shelf, which was prepared for submission to Harmful Algae (Roche, et al.). This dataset includes sites information, particulate domoic acid concentration, Pseudo-nitzschia cell counts, temperature, salinity, nutrient concentrations, presence-absence of Pseudo-nitzschia species, and NCBI BioSample accessions.
